Where Immigrants Come From,

Superintendent Jackson Of Castle

New York Eynmcrciut -Aduertistr con-
ccrning the prospects of immigration for
the coming season. lie said:
Il expect the number will about equal
that of,last wear about 500. 0O0.n
where do most of them come FROM
"From Germany. England also sends
a good many. In fact, we have them
from all parts of the world Very few
immigrants come 10 this port from
France
What do they expect to do in this
country"
The Germans are mostly farmers. and
90 We>! as so'n as they cam There are
a good many artisans among the English.
Engiish-spcaking immigrants are IN de-
mand as farm laborcrs. The Irish make
the best farmers. Italians and Swcdes
will do anything, and are mostly put to
work on the railroads, doing all the
heavy work. The Irish won't do that kind
of work. They have an advantage in
in being able 10 speak the language, and
expect something better than digging
dirt. ETC."

which they seem to prefer, spring and

Vocation of the Cowboy.

1t surprises one not to the manner born
to discover how much skill, Judgment
and experience is required in the proper
handling of big herds on the trail and
round up. Many people look upon the
vocation of the cowboy with touch of
contempt, and imagine that his business
calls for little beyond rough oaths and
hard riding. And yet ranchman learns
something new every day, and is fire.
quently called upon to display an amount
Of tact that is the balance in the scale Of
success. Did you see couple Of thou
sand range bceves on the trail? They will
frightcn at their own shadows, and the
only way to manage them is to make them
believe that they are doing as they please
To know when TO push them and when
to let them rest, when they should drink
and how much they can be crowded
without losing flesh, are subjects requir-
ing as much generalship in their way as
the movements Of human army, and no
one who has witnessed successful drive
will ever afterward belittlc the knowl-
edge Of the -maligned cowboy

" Sweet Home"

DR.. Charles Mackay, formerly the New
York correspondent of the London Times,
has written an explanatory letter to the
London 7tlrGr"pA touching the origin of
the melody known as Home, Sweet
Home"
DR.. Mackay says that sir Henry Bishop
long ago told him that he was engaged
in early manhood TO edit collection Of
the national melodies Of all countries,
and that ''Sicilian melody" had been
announced in the prospectus, but that he
could not find such an air, and therefore
invented that which has become so popu-
lar throughout the world as ''sweet
Home"
Our impression, however, has been,
and is, that Bishop composed the music
for the well known words that were writ
ten by John Howard Payne in his play Of
.'Clari,' which is the same in plot and
situation as the opera Of "Linda di
GhamouniX." "Homr, Sweet Home, y
was no doubt printed in Bishops collcc-
ton afterward, but we believe, in spite
of the testimony named, that it was
originally indcntcd for Paync's touching
drama.-Neu York Herald.

An Old Camnaigner's Story.

The command to which l belonged IN
our Mormon campaign was conveying
live stock sufficient for the army
en- route to Salt Lake. We had 80. 600
sheep, 1000 cattle and 500 mules. Near
Denver we came upon a natural soda
fountain bursting out of the side OF a
mountain. The place was a great resort
for game of all kinds, especially elk. 1t
was the 18th day of May, 1857. That
night our cavalry portion Of the escort
was ordered up the mountain to camp for
the night. Not knowing the climate,
we grumblcd and laid down under our
our rubber ponchos. When we walked in
the morning it was bitter cold and we
were unable at first to move. We were
buried under six feet of snow, which had
fallen during the night. The tents of
the infantry. whom we had left below,
were all blown down. and the stream OF
water by which they had camped was
frozen solid. All our stock had stampcdcd
and we were in a great strait for three
days. The sheep, Of course, could not
get far, and the cattle were soon got
together; but most of the wagon stock
had got away, and the 500 mules with
their two hcrdcrs had disappeared
entirely. Four days after they joined lis
with one of the men frozen in the saddle.
He had to have both legs amputatcd, and
afterward got big pension. The army
sutlcr had lot of whisky along, and the
commanding officer offered him SIS per
gallon for it, but the rascal wanted 81,
and had the impudcncc when he could
not get it to ask for mules. to haul it, rs
his own were lost in the storm. We'll, he
left the twenty-five barrels Of whisky
cached in the mountain, and, as we came
back by another route, | suppose they arc
buried there still. Globe Democrat.

Raisins, Figs and Dates.

From Malaga come those tempting
boxesadorncd with iiligree and gilt paper,
with colored medalions, dark eyed ser
vitors and courtiers with exaggerated
pork-pic hats Why We should call these
raisins muscatels nobody seems to know,
perhaps from the MuScat grape that the
Moors may have brought into Spain from
their African home. But they were
known to our forcfathcrs rs ''raysons of
the sun" And these ''raySonS of the
sum-" people credited with Il kind Of re-
Cooperative force Always they formed
part of the cquipagc of last illness.
The neat little table spread by the pa
ticnt's bedside with saffron water and the
dish of ''rySonS of the SUM-; with the
old family Bible reserved for such solemn
occasions reminded the sufferer that he
or she had done with the ordinary fare OF
mortal life. Sun-dricd, indeed, should
these ra:sins be- and yet not SO much
dried as distilled; the watcry parts driven
off, and all the richer qualities Of the
grape developed in natures alcmbic.
The best Of thcS,. raiSins are dried upon
the vine. When the bunch is ripe the
stem is twisted, or partly severed, and
then the fierce sun docs the rest. Com
moncr raiSius arc gathered and hung up
on strings in the sunshine and, as they
dry, are scaldcd or dipped into lye, a
process which brings the saccharinc par
ticles to tic surface, when the fruit as
sumcs its wcll-known slightly candicd
appearance. The raisins without stones,
called sultanas, are from Smyrna, which,
otherwise, is more concerned with figs
All around tho Mediterranean coast the
fig tree grows and tlourishcS: even i'll
England it is often found in old-fash-
ioncd gardens, in shrubhy form, trained
against the wall, aud Worthing boasts OF
fig gardens Of unknown antiquity, where
the fruit natures and ripens. But the
figs of the Levant bear the highest rcWI-
tatiOn, and here the greatest care and
skill are employed in growing and
harvesting the crop.
From figs To dates the transition is not
violent, for the fig tree and tho date palm
NAV be found in the same landscape; but
~1hc datc-palm will grow on the sandiest
barren, il only there he moisture below,
to which its deePly-sct roots can pene'
trate. Egypt is the favored country OF
the date, and it is said that more than
two millions and half of palms are there
registered as fruit bearing trees, and as ;
single tree will sometimes bear as much
as four h,ndrcdwciyht of datcs.quotcc

Cnltiyating the Shad.

4 recent bulletin in the United States
Fish Commission states that the total
distribution OF sl,ad fry for the season of
1886 amounted to 10000, 600. As the
entire number of sfad taken for the
market IS less tli;m 5000, 900, ii will De

every Shad taken from the water this
season, there have been artiticially hatchrG
and returned to the waters fifteen loun
shad. Assuming that the entire COS,
production and distribution has br,.
$50, 900. the young fish have been pro
duccd and distributed over the entire
United States at the rate Of about $5l5 :;
million, or about forty-six fry for on"
cent. Another interesting fact to note is
that, for the entire time up to and in
Guiding 1882, there were produced 900
900, 900 young shad; while for 1888 alone
the total was over $4,000, 900. This III

Wonderful Earthouake Effect.

"It is an i'll wind that blows nobody

should endorse that ancient saying more
heartily than Mrs. jerome, better known
to fame as Lady Randolph Churchills
mother. After suffering from paralysis
for some years and being quite bed.rid-
den, the poor Old lady was so terrified by
the first shock of the earthquake at
Cannes that she sprang out of bed, fled
down stairs and, instead Of delivering up
the ghost then and there, as her amazed
and terrified friends and attendants fully
expected, she has been able to walk ever
since. This is a case which should find
its way into manuals Of philosophy and

An Expensive Goose.

United States Marshal Wilson, of the
District of Columbia, in a conversation
the other day, told the story of goose
that cost the Government S1G0, as fol-
lows:
When Fred. Douglass was Marshal it
was customary to summon a large number
of witnesses to appear before the Grand
Jury, the ability of the jury to examine
all thus summoned in one day not being
considered by the Marshal. This was
particularly the case where the party
charged with an offense happened to be a
colored man. The per diem being $l.25,
every negro residing in the vicinity where
the offense was alleged to have been COM
mitted struggled to have himself sum-
moned. On one Of these occasions Mr..
Wilson was foreman of the Grand Jury.
A negro was charged with having stolen
a live goose. Over thirty witnesses were
summoned by the Marshal, and the Grand
Jury spent two days i'll their examina-
tion. When the case was concluded the
foreman reported the facts to Judge Nc
Arthur. and expressed the opinion that
witnesses were summoned in many cases
for revenue only. The foreman was in
structcd not to spend time in examining
such witnesses, and the Marshal was di-
rccted thereafter to summon no more wit
nesses than the Grand Jury could exam
inc on the day for which they were sum-
moncd. This resulted in correcting the
abuse during the continuance of Mr.. Will
sons term as foreman Of the jury. Il in
quircd into the cost" said Mr.. Wilson,
''of our inquest over that goose, and
found that the expense to the Govern
ment was $3.50. That experience has
been of service to me as Marshal, and has
enabled me to save to the treasury pretty
large sum in witness fees"
